At a time when many brands are creating healthy low-sugar desserts, Milk Bar founder, James Beard award-winning Chef and bakery owner Christina Tosi is asking: "what happened to dessert?" with the release of its new Truffle Crumb Cakes.
Milk Bar is now introducing a new line of Truffle Crumb Cakes that come in packs of two with indulgent flavors like Birthday, Chocolate Birthday and classic Chocolate Chip. These cakes can be found in the refrigerated bakery section at Whole Foods and they offer an easy way for people to purhase the brand's signature cake truffles from the grocery store. Thanks to their compact, portion-controlled size, the Truffle Crumb Cakes will appeal to those who are looking to mindfully indulge and enjoy a sweet treat without needing to compromise on taste with a product that's made with a reduced amount of sugar.
